Karoline Nystrøm

Schneider Electric Norway

A belief that everyone should have reliable access to energy drives Schneider Electric forward, with the firm’s Access to Energy programme – launched in 2009 – aiming to provide electricity to the three billion people around the world who remain without consistent access. CEO of Schneider Electric Norway Karoline Nystrøm brought close to 25 years’ executive experience from the technology sector to the role, and has garnered praise for her efforts to boost the company’s sustainability agenda. In March 2019, she was named one of the top female executives working in the technology sphere by the Norwegian Oda Nettverk and Abelia.
